When a PN junction is left idle for too long, the charge threshhold float balance (CTFB) starts to swing toward the stronger of the two (which is always present as the junction characteristics are determined by the physical properties of the die). This means that when the processor is left to idle for extended periods of time, the likelyhood of PN junction freeze (producing switching errors) grows exponentially, and will result in premature processor failure. The only way to ensure this does not happen is to keep the junctions in a continuously transitioning state. The only reliable way of doing this is by making sure the processor does not enter the idle state too often, which is exactly what the WCG software does. We are just trying to make the company's computers more reliable and a better investment overall.
... and remember, if you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.
